26、It’s natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. 【1】 But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?
Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees if your body language doesn’t match the feeling that your face shows.
【2】 Previously, they had found that the tone of a person’s voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I’m so excited.”
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists showed people a number of pictures of isolated(孤立的)faces and isolated bodies (with faces blurred out(模糊的)) that showed anger or fear. 【3】
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. 【4】 A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly(微妙地) influences which emotion they read.
【5】 If you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.
A．Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.
B．So, your body language is important for telling people how you feel.
C．Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.
D．An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight.
E．Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.
F．When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you’re happy to see them.
G．They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies
27、 US President Donald Trump on Friday called on the US to accelerate 5G deployment(部署).“The race to 5G is a race America must win,“Trump stressed,“We want to be the leader in this.”Trump said that 5G networks must be“guarded from the enemy—and we do have enemies out there.”It should be “private sector driven and private sector led,”but his administration is"removing regularity barriers to the buildout of networks.”Trump also vowed to extend broadband access to rural area,and“no matter where you are you will have access very quickly to 5G,”
Trump's words remind us of the US competition with the Soviet Union during the Cold War.The US’ overt crackdown(镇压) on Huawei is closely related to the country's 5G strategic deployment.While suppressing China's telecom giant,the US is mobilizing its own 5G development.Washington is quite narrow—minded.
Chinese companies including Huawei and ZTE have developed their 5G technology in line with the market rules.They may have never prepared for state competitions,nor harbored ambitions to challenge the global geopolitical landscape.Those low—key Chinese enterprises aim at doing better and making more money.They pursue technological leadership merely to survive and develop.It is exaggerating to regard 5G development as a decisive factor in national competitions.
Washington is launching a national mobilization to develop 5G technology.The approach is like taking a“great leap forward,"which is not cool—headed.
US technical mobilization ability is undoubtedly strong. However, the core competitiveness of the internet lies not only in technology but also in application conditions.As more and more people flood into cities, China has a dense urban population with a high average usage rate of base stations, making China's network infrastructure full of market driving force.
The US should give up the fantasy to be an "all—round champion"in the 5G era. Although it will still lead in the overall technological level in the long run, the country should accept the fact that it will be surpassed by China in certain specific fields of 5G. To be a normal powerful country, the US must first have a broad mind.
【1】Which words can best describe Trump's character?
A. narrow—minded and aggressive B. cool—headed and peace—loving
C. considerate and full of ambition D. determined and imaginative
【2】What's the main reason for the US' overt crackdown on Huawei?
A. Huawei has developed its 5G technology against the market rules.
B. The US wants to be the leader in 5G.
C. Huawei has earned more dollars than Apple.
D. Huawei doesn't keep a low key profile in dealing with American businessmen.
【3】What can we infer from the passage?
A. The US is an abnormal powerful country in every aspect in the world.
B. Android app is more powerful and useful than IOS app with 5G.
C. With more and more subscribers in the city, China has an advantage in developing 5G.
D. The US will lead in the overall technological level in the long term.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Where there is a smartphone, there is a Huawei
B. A New Era:5G Technology
C. A Long Way to Go for Huawei
D. US to Launch ‘Great Leap Forward’ Campaign in 5G
28、 Have you ever had someone tell you, “If you eat before bed, you're going to get fat” 【1】 But is eating late at night, specifically after 8 p.m., really going to make you gain weight?
One theory is that your metabolism(新陈代谢)slows down when you're asleep. With a slower metabolism, fewer calories are being burned. Thus the calories you eat right before bed would not be bumped off as much as they would be while you're awake. Although the science seems pretty sound, recent studies have shown that metabolism changes very little while you are asleep. The heart is still beating, lungs are still working, and the brain is still very active. 【2】 So while we are asleep, we are still burning calories.
【3】 Carbohydrates(碳水化合物)are one of your body's main sources of energy. When they go unused, they are stored primarily as fat. However, the time of day that carbohydrates are consumed does not play a role as to how much of it is stored as fat.
Actually, weight gain is based on the amount of calories being consumed overall and the amount of calories used overall. 【4】 It has little to do with the time when you eat. So how come individuals have higher BMIs when they snack' at night? Although there is a relation between the two, it is simply a result of eating too many calories!
Snacks that individuals tend to eat during the night are usually high in sugar and calories, such as ice cream, candy, potato chips, and soft drinks. The time these snacks are consumed does not matter.【5】.
A.All of these actions take energy.
B.That is to say, you will not get fat if you eat before bed.
C.Anyone eating anytime after the morning will become fat.
D.Food consumed late at night will more likely be stored away.
E.Without ever questioning it, people quickly assume this to be true.
F.Simply speaking, if you eat more calories than you burn, you will gain weight.
G.There's another theory about eating specifically carbohydrates before bed.
29、When you’re meeting someone for the first time, you’re eager to make a good impression. Your body language can make a great difference.
★ Shake hands firmly
Weak handshakes can make you seem shy and anything but confident. 【1】 You won’t impress anyone by giving them a painful hand.
★ 【2】
Stand up straight, but don’t tighten up, or you may look nervous. Make sure to check your posture and straighten up as needed.
★ Keep a suitable amount of eye contact
【3】. Not only are you paying attention, but you’re interested as well. Whenever there is a natural pause in the conversation, feel free to casually glance at something else. Eye contact is good, but nonstop staring can be a little unsettling!
★ Nod and smile when appropriate
Try nodding three times to show that you’re really absorbing what he is saying. When it comes to smiling, 【4】! If you turn up the corners of your mouth but your eyes remain neutral (无感情的), you could leave a bad impression.
★ Laugh genuinely
Even if you’re in a formal setting, if he has clearly said something that was intended to encourage a laugh, laugh! Show him that you have a sense of humor, and you’re listening to what he is saying. 【5】, laughter is a great way to help you look cheerful.
A．Keep your posture relaxed
B．make sure it reaches your eyes
C．keep your feet close together
D．This applies to both sitting and standing
E．If you’re in a worrying or nervous situation
F．Your handshake should be firm but not too tight
G．It is important to keep eye contact in a conversation

A huge milestone has just been reached in the field of artificial intelligence: AlphaGo, a program developed by Google’s DeepMind unit, has defeated legendary Go player Lee Se-dol in the first of five historic matches being held in Seoul, South Korea. Lee 【1】 after about three and a half hours, with 28 minutes and 28 seconds remaining on his clock.

“I was very surprised,”said Lee after the match.“I didn’t expect to lose. But I didn’t think AlphaGo would play the game in such a perfect manner.”DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis expressed“huge 【3】 for Lee Se-dol and his amazing skills.”calling the game“hugely exciting”and“very tense.”Team lead David Silver said it was an“amazing game of Go that really pushed AlphaGo to its 【4】.”
Go is an ancient Chinese board game that has long been considered one of the great 【5】faced by AI.

“I don’t regret accepting this challenge,”said Lee.“I am in shock, I admit that, but what’s done is done. I enjoyed this game and look forward to the next. I think I failed on the opening layout so if I do a better job on the opening aspect I think I will be able to increase my 【9】 of winning.”Lee was surprised both by how strong AlphaGo’s opening was, and by some 【10】moves.

40、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
There were two men who occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to drain (排除)the liquids from his lungs. His bed was next to the room’s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.
The men talked for hours every day. They spoke about their wives and families and their jobs. And every afternoon when the man by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened by all the activity and color of the outside world.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake, the man had said Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm, and a fine view of the city could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in detail, the man on the other side of the room closed his eyes and imagined the beautiful scene.
One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man could not hear the band, he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window described it. Unexpectedly, a strange thought entered his head: Why could he look out of the window? Why should he have all the pleasure of seeing everything while I never get to see anything? It didn’t seem fair.
As the thought developed, the man felt ashamed at first. But as the days passed and he missed seeing more sights, his envy turned into hate and soon turned him sour. He began to find himself unable to sleep. He should be by that window and that thought now controlled his life.
